You put your right foot in,
You put your right foot out;
You put your right foot in,
And you shake it all about.
You do the Hokey-Pokey,
And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

I think those are the steps.

fire up a game connect to a server, wait for the Punkbuster stuff to show up on the screen. Then exit out of the game goto http://www.evenbalance.com and download PBweb put that in your /EA Games/Battlefield 1942/PB/ directory and run it from there it may take 15 or more minutes for it to do it's thing updating punkbuster, but it will save you a lot of headaches and CTD's later.

As far as the patches go. As stated above there are 4 that you need to get.

The 1.6 patch for BF42, then the small 1.61 patch for BF42

Then DC.7 and then DC_Final. And you should be all set, but be sure to run that PBWEB.exe!!!!

Yeah that worked YoS but now I'm receiving blue screens. Something along the line of pagefile.sys error? WTF in over 1 years of playing I've never had a single issue with the Battlefield series.

I've been getting random black screen hard locks. I think mine is due to heat issues. How much memory do you have? Tried deleting the pagefile and recreating it?
